Our Bodies of Work: Art Inspired by Life

This is a series of free life drawing workshops for aspiring artists. Professional artist, Nina Stanley will give artists instruction, materials and space in which to work. Artists of any skill level or experience will create works using the human form as a foundation. You may attend one or all workshops.

This project is made possible in part through a Community Arts Grant, a program funded by The Arts Center of the Capital Region through the New York State Council on the Arts.

UAG will invite the new artists to experience hanging a show, by having artists participate in curating, installation and production. The exhibition opens on 1st Friday, our established monthly opening. It will encompass two 1st Fridays; 7/4/14 and 8/1/14, each of which brings in hundreds of people. We encourage new artists to attend the opening as greeters and to bring their friends and family and to meet with gallery visitors to get feedback.
